Kudo(s) for coming up with a game to teach basic programming in a fun way. Our 7 yr old should love this for the creativity and order it emphasizes.

Most software is still written sequentially, like Logo, with one command running after another, the same way you read a book line by line. Kodu is more like a piece of orchestral music, with lots of individual parts all playing at once. The characters you create do not patiently wait their turn to act—all of the UFOs react to all of the other UFOs, all at the same time—which is why delightful complexity is almost unavoidable after you've written a few lines of Kodu legislation.
